That low huh? Interesting. I've kept mine at around 27-28c, but they act pyschotic.

What I read about their natural habit said 27c - 29c depending on location. Your temps would definitely keep stress down from aggro.
 
Its all about understanding the psychology of a fish.... If the fish is happy he will eat and grow... if hes stressed and unhappy he will go off his food and will not thrive. :)
 
Thought you'd like a few close-ups... He likes showing off his white teeth.
